I am American and have been to your wonderful country. I was excited to see your blog on an online article on yahoo.com.

I hope someday that people can separate government activities from the people who live in these countries.....I found the Syrian people to be so welcoming and hospitable.

I look forward to another trip there, among other middle east countries so see the wonderful things there. And I hope someday that more Americans come to Syria to see the history, culture, people and definitely the great food!
